We need more books like this.

This book was eye opening to me. Because the author limits his scope to 100 drugs, he was able teach me the philosophy and some history behind the creation of the most useful drugs of today. As an experienced physician, the author is able to insert is own opinions and experiences about his chosen top 100 drugs. This makes this book much more useful to the average person then those other "pill books" which cram thousands of drugs and mind boggling technical info into a single book. If you have found yourself caught up in, and maybe discouraged by, the "natural supplements" craze (like I have), then you may find this book will bring you back into the 20th centry of safe FDA approved drugs.
